Select statement is not displaying data when I change value from 0 to null or vice versa.
But when I change data from 0 to 1 select statement starts displaying data.
Please find my code (query)
declare #tmptable TABLE (Id INT, IsVal BIT)
INSERT Into #tmptable VALUES(1,0)
--SELECT * FROM #tmptable
DECLARE #Id INT
DECLARE #IsVal BIT
SET #Id=1
SET #IsVal=NULL
select #Id as PrimaryKeyValue
,CAST(IsVal as VARCHAR) as OldValue,CAST(ISNULL(#IsVal,'') as VARCHAR) as NewValue
,'IsVal' AS DisplayFieldName,
CASE IsVal
WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes'
WHEN 0 THEN 'No'
END as DisplayOldValue
,CASE #IsVal
WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes'
WHEN 0 THEN 'No'
END as DisplayNewValue
from #tmptable WHERE Id =#Id and ISNULL(IsVal,'')<>ISNULL(#IsVal,'')
There is problem with statement :-
ISNULL(IsVal,'')<>ISNULL(#IsVal,'')
Can't figure out the change I need to make to the above statement so that my query can work as I desired. Please help.
#IsVal variable is used to set value.
Thanks
You are correct, the problem is this expression: ISNULL(IsVal,'')<>ISNULL(#IsVal,'')
When IsVal is 0 and #IsVal is NULL, this becomes:
0 <> ''
which will compare as integers, so the '' becomes 0 and you get:
0 <> 0
So, in your case, 0, '' and NULL will all be treated as equal. You need to choose an invalid int (maybe -1?) or cast the 0 to a varchar to do that comparison.
Thanks for the help,
I was able to resolve the issue:-
declare #tmptable TABLE (Id INT, IsVal BIT)
INSERT Into #tmptable VALUES(1,0)
--SELECT * FROM #tmptable
DECLARE #Id INT
DECLARE #IsVal BIT
declare #oldval VARCHAR(10)
SET #Id=1
SET #IsVal=null
select #oldval=isval from #tmptable WHERE Id=1
print ISNULL(#oldval,'')
print ISNULL(#IsVal,'')
--if(ISNULL(CAST(#oldval AS INT),'')<>ISNULL(CAST(#IsVal AS INT),''))
--BEGIN
PRINT '1'
select #Id as PrimaryKeyValue
,CAST(IsVal as VARCHAR(10)) as OldValue,CAST(ISNULL(#IsVal,'') as VARCHAR(10)) as NewValue
,'IsVal' AS DisplayFieldName,
CASE IsVal
WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes'
WHEN 0 THEN 'No'
END as DisplayOldValue
,CASE #IsVal
WHEN 1 THEN 'Yes'
WHEN 0 THEN 'No'
END as DisplayNewValue
from #tmptable WHERE Id =#Id and ISNULL(CAST(IsVal AS VARCHAR),'null')<>ISNULL(CAST(#IsVal AS VARCHAR),'null')
Why not just use a simple comparison?
(IsVal = #IsVal or IsVal IS NULL AND #IsVal IS NULL)
You may still have problems with type conversion, assuming the types are not compatible.

(IsVal = #IsVal or IsVal IS NULL AND #IsVal IS NULL)
You may still have problems with type conversion, assuming the types are not compatible.
If that is the case:
(IsVal = CONVERT(VARCHAR(255), #IsVal) or
IsVal IS NULL AND #IsVal IS NULL
)
There is no need to invent special values for isnull() or coalesce().
I have two tables named Retail and Activity and the data is as shown below:
Retail Table
Activity Table
My main concern is about Ok and Fault column of the table Retail, as you can see it contains comma separated value of ActivityId.
What i want is, if the Ok column has ActivityId the corresponding column will have Yes, if the Fault column has ActivityId then it should be marked as No
Note I have only four columns that is fixed, it means i have to check that either four of the columns has its value in Ok or Fault, if yes then only i have to print yes or no, otherwise null.
Desired result should be like :
If the value is in Ok then yes other wise No.
I guessing you want to store 'yes' or 'No' in some column. Below is the query to update that column :
UPDATE RetailTable
SET <Result_Column>=
CASE
WHEN Ok IS NOT NULL THEN 'Yes'
WHEN Fault IS NOT NULL THEN 'No'
END
You can use below code as staring point:
DECLARE #Retail TABLE
(
PhoneAuditID INT,
HandsetQuoteID INT,
Ok VARCHAR(50)
)
INSERT INTO #Retail VALUES (1, 1009228, '4,22,5')
INSERT INTO #Retail VALUES (2, 1009229, '1')
DECLARE #Activity TABLE
(
ID INT,
Activity VARCHAR(50)
)
INSERT INTO #Activity VALUES (1, 'BatteryOK?'), (4, 'PhonePowersUp?'), (22,'SomeOtherQuestion?'), (5,'LCD works OK?')
SELECT R.[PhoneAuditID], R.[HandsetQuoteID], A.[Activity], [Ok] = CASE WHEN A.[ID] IS NOT NULL THEN 'Yes' END
FROM #Retail R
CROSS APPLY dbo.Split(R.Ok, ',') S
LEFT JOIN #Activity A ON S.[items] = A.[ID]
I have used Split function provided here:
separate comma separated values and store in table in sql server
Try following query. i have used pivot to show row as columns. I have also used split function to split id values which you can find easily on net:
CREATE TABLE PhoneAudit
(
PhoneAuditRetailID INT,
HandsetQuoteID INT,
Ok VARCHAR(50),
Fault VARCHAR(50)
)
INSERT INTO PhoneAudit VALUES (1,10090,'1,2','3')
CREATE TABLE ActivityT
(
ID INT,
Activity VARCHAR(100)
)
INSERT INTO ActivityT VALUES (1,'Battery')
INSERT INTO ActivityT VALUES (2,'HasCharger')
INSERT INTO ActivityT VALUES (3,'HasMemoryCard')
INSERT INTO ActivityT VALUES (4,'Test')
DECLARE #SQL AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE #ColumnName AS NVARCHAR(MAX)
SELECT #ColumnName= ISNULL(#ColumnName + ',','') + QUOTENAME(Activity) FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Activity FROM ActivityT) AS Activities
SET #SQL = 'SELECT PhoneAuditRetailID, HandsetQuoteID,
' + #ColumnName + '
FROM
(SELECT
t1.PhoneAuditRetailID,
t1.HandsetQuoteID,
TEMPOK.*
FROM
PhoneAudit t1
CROSS APPLY
(
SELECT
Activity,
(CASE WHEN ID IN (SELECT * FROM dbo.SplitIDs(t1.Ok,'',''))
THEN ''YES''
ELSE ''NO''
END) AS VALUE
FROM
ActivityT t2
) AS TEMPOK) AS t3
PIVOT
(
MIN(VALUE)
FOR Activity IN ('+ #ColumnName + ')
) AS PivotTable;'
EXEC sp_executesql #SQL
DROP TABLE PhoneAudit
DROP TABLE ActivityT
There are several ways to do this. If you are looking for a purely declarative approach, you could use a recursive CTE. The following example of this is presented as a generic solution with test data which should be adaptable to your needs:
Declare #Delimiter As Varchar(2)
Set #Delimiter = ','
Declare #Strings As Table
(
String Varchar(50)
)
Insert Into #Strings
Values
('12,345,6,78,9'),
(Null),
(''),
('123')
;With String_Columns As
(
Select
String,
Case
When String Is Null Then ''
When CharIndex(#Delimiter,String,0) = 0 Then ''
When Len(String) = 0 Then ''
Else Left(String,CharIndex(#Delimiter,String,0)-1)
End As String_Column,
Case
When String Is Null Then ''
When CharIndex(#Delimiter,String,0) = 0 Then ''
When Len(String) = 0 Then ''
When Len(Left(String,CharIndex(#Delimiter,String,0)-1)) = 0 Then ''
Else Right(String,Len(String)-Len(Left(String,CharIndex(#Delimiter,String,0)-1))-1)
End As Remainder,
1 As String_Column_Number
From
#Strings
Union All
Select
String,
Case
When CharIndex(#Delimiter,Remainder,0) = 0 Then Remainder
Else Left(Remainder,CharIndex(#Delimiter,Remainder,0)-1)
End As Remainder,
Case
When CharIndex(#Delimiter,Remainder,0) = 0 Then ''
When Len(Left(Remainder,CharIndex(#Delimiter,Remainder,0)-1)) = 0 Then ''
Else Right(Remainder,Len(Remainder)-Len(Left(Remainder,CharIndex(#Delimiter,Remainder,0)-1))-1)
End As Remainder,
String_Column_Number + 1
From
String_Columns
Where
(Remainder Is Not Null And Len(Remainder) > 1)
)
Select
String,
String_Column,
String_Column_Number
From

I want to set column value only if it is not blank.
Here is sample
Declare #Temp Varchar(20)
Update Logins
Set ColValue =
Case When #Temp <> '' Then #Temp Else /* Dont SET Value */ End
Where Code=1
What to write in Else Part ?
I have multiple columns to update and want to apply condition in only single column
DB : SQL SERVER 2008
You have to set the updated column as below:
Declare #Temp Varchar(20)
Update Logins
Set ColValue = Case When #Temp <> '' Then #Temp
Else ColValue
End
Where Code=1
You can check your variable in WHERE to not update at all when it's blank
Declare #Temp Varchar(20)
Update Logins
Set ColValue = #Temp
Where Code=1 AND #Temp <> ''
I'm trying to solve the following problem:
I would like to make a select, when the result is empty it should be replaced with 'empty'
Else the result should be there.
That is my try:
select case (count*)
when 0 then 'empty'
ELSE
THEVALUEOFTHECOLUM
END AS RESULT
from Database.table where CarID = 12;
Thanks for every comment.
This should work, but you might have to convert the second occurrence of COUNT(*) to VARCHAR depending on the database used:
SELECT
CASE WHEN COUNT(*) = 0
THEN 'empty'
ELSE COUNT(*) -- CONVERT, TO_CHAR, ...
END AS result
FROM Database.table where CarID = 12;
SELECT
CASE
WHEN Q.countvalue = 0 THEN 'Empty'
ELSE CONVERT(NVARCHAR(10), Q.countvalue)
END AS RESULT
FROM
(
SELECT COUNT(*) AS countvalue
FROM Database.table WHERE CarID = 12
) AS Q
This feels hacky to me, but it will return the column data.
It is not one query, but it's still setwise.
declare #tmp table (id int)
declare #cnt int
insert into #tmp select col from table
select #cnt = count(*) from #tmp
if(#cnt = 0)
begin
select 'empty'
end
else
begin
select * from #tmp
end
Is it possible to code it with one query?
If there are no results -> no result found
else
Show all results, not only one
declare #tmp table (id int)
declare #cnt int
insert into #tmp select col from table
select #cnt = count(*) from #tmp
if(#cnt = 0)
begin
select 'empty'
end
else
begin
select * from #tmp
end
I tried searching around, but I couldn't find anything that would help me out.
I'm trying to do this in SQL:
declare #locationType varchar(50);
declare #locationID int;
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
CASE #locationType
WHEN 'location' THEN account_location = #locationID
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area = #locationID
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division = #locationID
I know that I shouldn't have to put '= #locationID' at the end of each one, but I can't get the syntax even close to being correct. SQL keeps complaining about my '=' on the first WHEN line...
How can I do this?
declare #locationType varchar(50);
declare #locationID int;
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
#locationID =
CASE #locationType
WHEN 'location' THEN account_location
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division
END
without a case statement...
SELECT column1, column2
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE
(#locationType = 'location' AND account_location = #locationID)
OR
(#locationType = 'area' AND xxx_location_area = #locationID)
OR
(#locationType = 'division' AND xxx_location_division = #locationID)
Here you go.
SELECT
column1,
column2
FROM
viewWhatever
WHERE
CASE
WHEN #locationType = 'location' AND account_location = #locationID THEN 1
WHEN #locationType = 'area' AND xxx_location_area = #locationID THEN 1
WHEN #locationType = 'division' AND xxx_location_division = #locationID THEN 1
ELSE 0
END = 1
I'd say this is an indicator of a flawed table structure. Perhaps the different location types should be separated in different tables, enabling you to do much richer querying and also avoid having superfluous columns around.
If you're unable to change the structure, something like the below might work:
SELECT
*
FROM
Test
WHERE
Account_Location = (
CASE LocationType
WHEN 'location' THEN #locationID
ELSE Account_Location
END
)
AND
Account_Location_Area = (
CASE LocationType
WHEN 'area' THEN #locationID
ELSE Account_Location_Area
END
)
And so forth... We can't change the structure of the query on the fly, but we can override it by making the predicates equal themselves out.
EDIT: The above suggestions are of course much better, just ignore mine.
The problem with this is that when the SQL engine goes to evaluate the expression, it checks the FROM portion to pull the proper tables, and then the WHERE portion to provide some base criteria, so it cannot properly evaluate a dynamic condition on which column to check against.
You can use a WHERE clause when you're checking the WHERE criteria in the predicate, such as
WHERE account_location = CASE #locationType
WHEN 'business' THEN 45
WHEN 'area' THEN 52
END
so in your particular case, you're going to need put the query into a stored procedure or create three separate queries.
OR operator can be alternative of case when in where condition
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[RPT_340bClinicDrugInventorySummary]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here

#selecttype int,
#selectedValue varchar (50)

WHERE (#ClinicId = 0 AND 1 = 1)
OR (#ClinicId != 0 AND drugstock_drugname.clinicid_FK = #ClinicId)
-- Alternative Case When You can use OR
AND ((#selecttype = 1 AND 1 = 1)
OR (#selecttype = 2 AND drugname.drugnameid_PK = #selectedValue)
OR (#selecttype = 3 AND drugndc.drugid_PK = #selectedValue)
OR (#selecttype = 4 AND drugname.cdrugclass = 'C2')
OR (#selecttype = 5 AND LEFT(drugname.cdrugclass, 1) = 'C'))
ORDER BY clinic.cclinicname, drugname.cdrugname

Please try this query.
Answer To above post:
select #msgID, account_id
from viewMailAccountsHeirachy
where
CASE #smartLocationType
WHEN 'store' THEN account_location
WHEN 'area' THEN xxx_location_area
WHEN 'division' THEN xxx_location_division
WHEN 'company' THEN xxx_location_company
END = #smartLocation
Try this:
WHERE (
#smartLocationType IS NULL
OR account_location = (
CASE
WHEN #smartLocationType IS NOT NULL
THEN #smartLocationType
ELSE account_location
END
)
)
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[Temp_Proc_Select_City]
#StateId INT

#StateID = CASE WHEN ISNULL(#StateId,0) = 0 THEN 0 ELSE StateId END ORDER BY CityName
END
Try this query, it's very easy and useful: Its ready to execute!

In general you can manage case of different where conditions in this way
SELECT *
FROM viewWhatever
WHERE 1=(CASE <case column or variable>
WHEN '<value1>' THEN IIF(<where condition 1>,1,0)
WHEN '<value2>' THEN IIF(<where condition 2>,1,0)
ELSE IIF(<else condition>,1,0)
END)
Case Statement in SQL Server Example
Syntax
CASE [ expression ]
WHEN condition_1 THEN result_1
WHEN condition_2 THEN result_2
...
WHEN condition_n THEN result_n
ELSE result
END
Example
SELECT contact_id,
CASE website_id
WHEN 1 THEN 'TechOnTheNet.com'
WHEN 2 THEN 'CheckYourMath.com'
ELSE 'BigActivities.com'
END
FROM contacts;
OR
SELECT contact_id,
CASE
WHEN website_id = 1 THEN 'TechOnTheNet.com'
WHEN website_id = 2 THEN 'CheckYourMath.com'
ELSE 'BigActivities.com'
END
FROM contacts;
This worked for me.

The 4 digit century is determined by the rule, if the year is 50 or more, the century is 1900, otherwise 2000.
Given two 6 digit periods that mark the start and end period, like a quarter, return the rows that fall in that range.
-- 1st quarter of 2020
SELECT * FROM PER_CAL WHERE (( CASE WHEN CAL_YEAR > 50 THEN 1900 ELSE 2000 END + CAL_YEAR ) * 100 + CAL_PER ) BETWEEN 202001 AND 202003
-- 4th quarter of 1999
SELECT * FROM PER_CAL WHERE (( CASE WHEN CAL_YEAR > 50 THEN 1900 ELSE 2000 END + CAL_YEAR ) * 100 + CAL_PER ) BETWEEN 199910 AND 199912
